Techie Explains How to Manage both Retail and Wholesale in Candela

Dear Techie

I am using Candela and I deal in both wholesale and retail. The price I charge to my wholesale customers is less than what I charge to end customers; is there a way to manage two different prices for same products? How can I manage two types of customers and two types of prices in Candela?

Dear Retailer-who-is-Also-a wholesaler

No worries. Candela is suited for both retail and wholesale operations, and you can also manage both side by side. This is how:

On the Customer Type screen, define one customer type as ‘Wholesale Customer’

Now on the Customer Definition screen, enter names of your wholesale customers and from Customer Type drop down menu, select ‘Wholesaler’ for all wholesale customers.

Once you have defined customer types, the next step is to define price for the particular customer type.

For this, first go to System Configuration>Product/STR tab and from ‘Price Methodology’ drop down select ‘Customer Based’
